It's been handed down a few times, and I don't recollect it ever being online but it does have a version of Firefox from so I could be wrong about that. I recently tried using the internal modem on the computer - a 56k Compaq modem - for the first time. The modem shows up in certain system dialogs but none of the dialers - HyperTerminal, Phone Dialer, etc.

drivers - How to use USB flash drives with Windows 98? - Super User

There is actually a third party Service Pack for Windows 98 Second Edition which is still being updated well into , even though Microsoft ended their support for Windows 98 on the 11th of July ! The problem is, due to some obsolete software that needs to run on Windows 98, the computer cannot be upgraded to newer versions of Windows such as 8, 7, Vista or even Windows XP. Updating the old software is very expensive, so the decision was to stay with Windows 98 and try to source parts that can support this ageing operating system. The immediate problem was getting the flash drive to work. Windows 98SE is actually not too bad at handling mass storage drivers for a USB storage device IF you have a driver disc that accompanied it or a download is available. Predictably, Kingston offers no support for their devices in Windows 98 so no driver can be installed to pick up the flash drive.
